Budge (UK)Kay Collett (Australia)Meena Amlani(Canada)For more informationand to apply/getinvolved with WRETF:www.wretf.comNew Trustees vacancyUnfortunately after a serving a short but fruitful term as trustee Meena Amlani hasresigned. This means we are looking for a new trustee to bring a new dimension to theWRETF.What is the difference between the ISRRT and the WRETF?Although the WRETF started out life as the K.C. Clarke book fund of the ISRRT it evolvedover the years into an independent UK registered charity. We may be independent fromthe ISRRT but we still work in close cooperation with them and fulfil different goals.Very often we receive applications and offers of help via the ISRRT and we in turn makereferrals to the ISRRT when we have applications that are not within our remit. The ISRRTappoints our trustees but we have our own trust deed and make our own decisions on therunning of the trust.Our Role in World RadiographyOur main role is to send used and new textbooks to departments where texts are scarce.We also support workshops with textbooks and technical information, support postgraduateresearch projects and pay for text translations. All applications are subject to meetingstrict criteria ands in some cases a discussion and agreement by the trustees. For moreinformation including activities and feedback visit our website www.wretf.comFundingWe receive no funding directly from the ISRRT only the donations made when you renewyour membership. This means we rely entirely on donations.Books sent out in FebruaryWe sent out a total of 33.78kgs of books at a cost of £466.33 to Zambia, Botswana, Nigeria& Tanzania. We send all books by surface mail to keep costs down but as you would agreethe rising costs are making our job harder.36 ISRRT Newsletter
